Yes, you can only run Clubbercise classes if you’re licensed. We offer two licence types.
Our Independent Licence (£22/AU$36 per month) is for instructors who want to hire their own venue and take payments for their classes.
Our Venue Licence is for gyms, studios etc, who want to run classes for their members.
You need to hold one of our recognised qualifications in order to be accepted onto a Clubbercise training course.
Acceptable qualifications – UK
Acceptable qualifications – Australia
If you’re from another country please email us or call +44 (0)20 7183 2718 before booking the course. Our opening times are 10am – 5pm Monday – Friday (GMT).
The licence fee gives you the essentials to run successful Clubbercise classes – marketing materials, choreography, music, access to purchase glow sticks and more…
If you take out an Independent Licence and pay monthly you are not tied into a contract so can stop at any time but you will no longer be able to run Clubbercise classes.
If you pay annually you can cancel after 12 months.
Pretty much any venue as long as it can be darkened (in summer as well as winter). It doesn’t have to be pitch black, but you’ll want to minimize the amount of light coming in to create a nightclub atmosphere.
Our official glow sticks are a requirement for classes and you can buy them in batches directly from our online shop once you’ve set up your Clubbercise Licence. You can also sell them to your participants to make a profit (the RRP is £6/AU$10 per pair). Our glow sticks are reusable and recyclable.
You’ll need some party lighting to create a nightclub atmosphere, you can light a small dance/fitness studio for as little as £50/AU$85. If you have a larger venue you will want a few more lights to create an authentic club effect. Once you become licensed you will receive a special discount code from our sound and lighting partner Sound Dynamics, you can view their lighting here (UK & Europe only). Their ‘Moonglow’ lights and UV bars are very popular.
In most countries, you will generally need a music licence because we use original tracks from well-known artists not cover versions (the music is one of the key selling points of Clubbercise).
The minimum age for Clubbercise classes is age 16 unless the instructor is licenced to teach Family, U13 or U18 Clubbercise classes.

The core routines are created by our Pro Choreographers – this helps to maintain consistency so that our Clubbers know what to expect at a class. However, we think creativity is important too and that’s why we give our instructors the option to choose their own music and create their own routines for up to five tracks per class as long as they follow the rules outlined in the Class Components section of our Instructor Pack.
Feel free to email us or call +44 (0)20 7183 2718. Our opening times are 10am – 2pm Monday – Friday (GMT).
